142 Admit Defeat And Lost Conviction
Zhu Qiao continued to ask, “Then what’s your valuation?”
Xie Yan was not at a disadvantage and answered quickly, “My company’s valuation has already exceeded a million yuan!”
He had invested more than a million yuan in the early stages alone and now had stable users. Moreover, Xie Yan’s father said that he was very willing to take over his company for a million yuan.
Ai Tingya licked her lips, looking a little uneasy. She silently extended a finger.
!!Zhu Qiao asked curiously, “Is it also a million yuan?”
A milk tea shop with more than a hundred employees and a profit of more than a million yuan should be worth a higher valuation. This child seemed to be lacking in terms of accounting knowledge.
Ai Tingya shook her head and said, “The valuation of the three milk tea shops should exceed 10 million yuan.”
Zhu Qiao felt that this was right.
Ai Tingya was not done yet. “In addition, the company has a dormitory building worth 100 million yuan and a food factory. Hmm… I forgot how much we bought it for. Can I fill it in when I get back?”
Zhu Qiao and Xie Yan shivered at the same time. They had so many assets that she could not remember them clearly!
However, Ai Tingya felt very ashamed.
She cut off all unnecessary social activities and focused on her studies and work. Now that she thought about it carefully, her current success depended solely on Luo Feng. She had worked hard for so long, but she was still not enough for Luo Feng to move his fingers.
Ai Tingya felt a sense of guilt. Luo Feng and her were inseparable, but would she be suspected of suppressing the situation if she included the dormitory building when filling out the application form?
Xie Yan was so shocked that he could not speak when he saw her guilty expression.
He felt that his mentality had collapsed. What was the point of competing in this current situation!
Speaking of which…
Ai Tingya, why do you still look so ashamed? Are you helping me feel ashamed? Do you have to be so considerate?
He looked at the application form in his hand with a complicated expression. It was a foregone conclusion even though he was unwilling to give up.
Xie Yan said, “Teacher Zhu, I don’t want to apply for it anymore.”
“Okay.” Zhu Qiao expressed that she understood Xie Yan’s feelings very well, but she looked up at his disappointed expression. She felt that as a teacher, she needed to encourage frustrated students. “Actually, you don’t have to be discouraged. Your project is also very advantageous.”
Xie Yan’s expression improved slightly. If he had not encountered a money-making monster like Ai Tingya, he would indeed have an advantage.
“I know. At that time, I saw that there was a lot of potential in this aspect and room for development, so I chose to make a shopping website.” Xie Yan knew himself very well.
Zhu Qiao agreed with Xie Yan. The only drawback was that there was a lot of investment required in the early stages of the website development. It might be a little difficult for a student.
Xie Yan was not a sore loser. Moreover, he felt that losing to Ai Tingya, who had hundreds of millions yuan in assets, was not a loss.
It was just like Xie Yan to learn from failure.
He looked at Zhu Qiao with a burning gaze and said solemnly, “Teacher Zhu, tell the truth. If not for Ai Tingya this time, would I be able to apply for the support successfully?”
Zhu Qiao thought for a moment, her expression becoming more and more conflicted.
Actually, she could not say for sure.
From her perspective, Xie Yan’s project was a little obvious, and its flaws were also obvious. Other than the high investment in the early stages and the long return cycle, there was also the preference of the approval leader.
They were in the Finance Faculty, not the Computer Science Faculty after all. The leaders were more willing to support a milk tea shop like Ai Tingya that had already formed a scale and was making a stable profit. The business advantage was even more obvious.
Zhu Qiao only smiled. “I have a computer science teacher I have a good relationship with. I’ll help you ask if there’s any similar support there tomorrow.”
“Thank you, Teacher.” Even though Xie Yan did not have much hope, he was still very grateful to Zhu Qiao.
After receiving encouragement from his teacher, there was one more thing that bothered Xie Yan.
What exactly did Ai Tingya rely on to make a name for herself? Moreover, what kind of business could allow her to take down a factory in a short period of time and expand quickly? She could even own a dormitory building worth hundreds of millions.
This experience was a gain.
Xie Yan shamelessly asked humbly, “Ai Tingya, can I ask you something?”
Ai Tingya had thought that he would be unhappy, but she did not expect Xie Yan to be so humble. She thought highly of him and nodded. “Tell me.”
Xie Yan felt that there was a chance. If he could successfully learn it, he might as well open another sideline and earn some money to subsidize the website. Perhaps he wouldn’t have to wait for support.
“I want to know how you made the milk tea shop so successful?”
When Ai Tingya heard this, she suddenly frowned and blinked with a strange expression.
She had no intention of hiding anything. She just felt that there was no point in saying her method.
“If you want to hear it, I’ll tell you. At first, it was because our family was in a more difficult situation and needed to open a small shop for emergencies. Luo Feng… is my boyfriend. He invested 600,000 yuan to open a milk tea shop. Then, our first milk tea shop opened at the entrance of the high school.”
Xie Yan’s eyes widened and he tilted his ear, afraid that he would miss a word.
Zhu Qiao also secretly pricked up her ears. Her little counselor salary could only maintain her food and clothing. Many teachers were doing side jobs, so she had to do them too.
Ai Tingya counted with her fingers and recalled. “The first one did very well because of Luo Feng’s status as the top scholar of the college entrance examination. The profits were very smooth. Then, he took out another 800,000 yuan and we opened another one in the city.”
“Oh, right. Luo Feng spent money to buy a food factory because he wanted to ensure the food safety of the raw materials.”
“The milk tea shop in the city was also very popular, but we had to leave home to go to university, so we found the store manager to take care of it. After coming to university, we realized that the geographical location here was very good. He took out another three million yuan and opened a third milk tea shop.”
“Luo Feng felt that he should increase the treatment of his employees because of the expansion needs. He took out another 100 million yuan to buy a dormitory building…”
Ai Tingya could be said to be very honest and told him all the key points.
Xie Yan listened very seriously and even wanted to take his notes. However, after hearing it, the thing that left the deepest impression on him was “Luo Feng paid”.
He instantly understood Ai Tingya’s secret to success. “So… you rely on your boyfriend to get money wherever you go?!”
Ai Tingya smiled in embarrassment. “More or less.”
What she said was true. The reason why she could grow so quickly was to adapt to Luo Feng’s fast pace of opening the shop. Instead of saying that Ai Tingya was improving at lightning speed, it was more accurate to say that she was being pushed forward by Luo Feng.
Or rather, she was pushed forward by Luo Feng’s money.
The corners of Xie Yan’s mouth twitched. F*ck, how could he learn from this experience!
Learn from Ai Tingya and find a rich boy… No, girlfriend?
Thinking of this, Xie Yan could not help but fall into deep thought. With Luo Feng’s wealth, there was no need to start a small business like a milk tea shop. The reason why he paid to open the shop was completely because he was in love with Ai Tingya!
How many people in the world could do it without caring about gains and losses, not to mention whether or not he could find such a rich boyfriend?
